Hyperrectangle
In geometry, an orthotope (also called a hyperrectangle or a box) is the generalization of a rectangle to higher dimensions. A necessary and sufficient condition is that it is congruent to the Cartesian product of intervals. If all of the edges are equal length, it is a hypercube. A hyperrectangle is a special case of a parallelotope. A three-dimensional orthotope is also called a right rectangular prism, rectangular cuboid, or rectangular parallelepiped. A four-dimensional orthotope is likely a hypercuboid.
Alternated hypercubic honeycomb
In geometry, the alternated hypercube honeycomb (or demicubic honeycomb) is a dimensional infinite series of honeycombs, based on the hypercube honeycomb with an alternation operation. It is given a Schläfli symbol h{4,3...3,4} representing the regular form with half the vertices removed and containing the symmetry of Coxeter group for n ≥ 4. A lower symmetry form can be created by removing another mirror on an order-4 peak. The alternated hypercube facets become demihypercubes, and the deleted vertices create new orthoplex facets.
Omnitruncated simplectic honeycomb
In geometry an omnitruncated simplectic honeycomb or omnitruncated n-simplex honeycomb is an n-dimensional uniform tessellation, based on the symmetry of the affine Coxeter group. Each is composed of omnitruncated simplex facets. The vertex figure for each is an irregular n-simplex. The facets of an omnitruncated simplectic honeycomb are called permutahedra and can be positioned in n+1 space with integral coordinates, permutations of the whole numbers (0,1,..,n). The (2n-1)-simplex honeycombs can be project
Simplectic honeycomb
In geometry, the simplectic honeycomb (or n-simplex honeycomb) is a dimensional infinite series of honeycombs, based on the affine Coxeter group symmetry. It is represented by a Coxeter-Dynkin diagram as a cyclic graph of n + 1 nodes with one node ringed. It is composed of n-simplex facets, along with all rectified n-simplices. It can be thought of as an n-dimensional hypercubic honeycomb that has been subdivided along all hyperplanes , then stretched along its main diagonal until the simplices on the ends of the hypercubes become regular.
Cyclotruncated simplectic honeycomb
In geometry, the cyclotruncated simplectic honeycomb (or cyclotruncated n-simplex honeycomb) is a dimensional infinite series of honeycombs, based on the symmetry of the affine Coxeter group. It is given a Schläfli symbol t0,1{3[n+1]}, and is represented by a Coxeter-Dynkin diagram as a cyclic graph of n+1 nodes with two adjacent nodes ringed. It is composed of n-simplex facets, along with all truncated n-simplices. It is also called a Kagome lattice in two and three dimensions, although it is not a lattice.
Quarter hypercubic honeycomb
In geometry, the quarter hypercubic honeycomb (or quarter n-cubic honeycomb) is a dimensional infinite series of honeycombs, based on the hypercube honeycomb. It is given a Schläfli symbol q{4,3...3,4} or Coxeter symbol qδ4 representing the regular form with three quarters of the vertices removed and containing the symmetry of Coxeter group for n ≥ 5, with = and for quarter n-cubic honeycombs = .
Diagramme de Coxeter-Dynkin
En géométrie, un diagramme de Coxeter-Dynkin est un graphe représentant un ensemble relationnel de miroirs (ou d'hyperplans de réflexion) dans l'espace pour une construction kaléidoscopique. En tant que graphe lui-même, le diagramme représente les groupes de Coxeter, chaque nœud du graphe représente un miroir (facette du domaine) et chaque branche du graphe représente l'ordre de l'angle diédral entre deux miroirs (sur une arête du domaine). En plus, les graphes ont des anneaux (cercles) autour des nœuds pour les miroirs actifs représentant un polytope précis.
Complex polytope
In geometry, a complex polytope is a generalization of a polytope in real space to an analogous structure in a complex Hilbert space, where each real dimension is accompanied by an imaginary one. A complex polytope may be understood as a collection of complex points, lines, planes, and so on, where every point is the junction of multiple lines, every line of multiple planes, and so on. Precise definitions exist only for the regular complex polytopes, which are configurations.
Hyperoctaèdre
thumb|Diagramme de Schlegel de l'hexadécachore, hyperoctaèdre en dimension 4. Un hyperoctaèdre est, en géométrie, un polytope régulier convexe, généralisation de l'octaèdre en dimension quelconque. Un hyperoctaèdre de dimension n est également parfois nommé polytope croisé, n-orthoplexe ou cocube. Un hyperoctaèdre est l'enveloppe convexe des points formés par toutes les permutations des coordonnées (±1, 0, 0, ..., 0). En dimension 1, l'hyperoctaèdre est simplement le segment de droite [-1, +1] ; en dimension 2, il s'agit d'un carré de sommets {(1, 0), (-1, 0), (0, 1), (0, -1)}.
Groupe de Coxeter
Un groupe de Coxeter est un groupe engendré par des réflexions sur un espace. Les groupes de Coxeter se retrouvent dans de nombreux domaines des mathématiques et de la géométrie. En particulier, les groupes diédraux, ou les groupes d'isométries de polyèdres réguliers, sont des groupes de Coxeter. Les groupes de Weyl sont d'autres exemples de groupes de Coxeter. Ces groupes sont nommés d'après le mathématicien H.S.M. Coxeter. Un groupe de Coxeter est un groupe W ayant une présentation du type: où est à valeurs dans , est symétrique () et vérifie , si .
